The NZ Junior Piano Competition (NZJPC) is a biennial national competition for pre-tertiary pianists in New Zealand, competing for a total prize pool of over $4,000. NZJPC received over 40 entries this year from across New Zealand. Only 16 pianists aged between 10 to 18 were selected as semi-finalists, including Wellington College student, Zhe Ning Chin and St Patrick's College student, Otis Prescott-Mason.
